Eddie Cochran " Forever Rockin " Live

I ordered this one on faith and I am happy to report this CD is amazing!I was expecting a poor quality live late 50's recording but I was very surprised when playing the CD just how great the sound really is!
All the hits are there and some covers you may have not yet heard.Eddie was known for his guitar playing and although it was not as up front as today, you can tell he had great command of the instrument and played all the right notes. Have a listen to " Milk Cow Blues " I was completely thrilled with Eddie's guitar ...you must hear this song it is a piece of history and yet sounds like it was recorded yesterday.
I highly recommend the set and I was just talking about disk one ! Disk two I haven't had a chance to listen to yet as I just received the CD yesterday and listened to disc one on the way to work.
Disc two is made up of earlier work and rare singles etc. I will report when I have listened and have something to say.
Buy This CD if you like Eddie Cochran!!!!! If you haven't had the pleasure then have a listen and see how much he influenced the rock and roll as we know it today!
the LIVE version of "Summer Time Blues " is loud and in your face give it and the rest of the CD a listen .... You will be happy you did!
Rock and Roll..............

Incredible sound quality!

If you're a Cochrane fan, this is a must have purchase. All of his hits are here, but also included are some amazing rarer cuts. Eddie Cochrane is one of the most underrated and influential rockers of the 50's. Had he lived, he easily would have taken his place with Buddy Holly, Little Richard and Chuck Berry as icons of that era. Considering his tantalizingly brief career, he contributed a number of classics to the rock repertoire. My favorite is the sensational "Twenty Flight Rock," the song that quite literally first attracted John Lennon to Paul McCartney in 1957. (Check out Paul's great cover version of this song on his Russian album). "Summertime Blues" is another outstanding song which is as vibrant as it was when first released 45 years ago.

Eddie Cochrane is sadly under-appreciated today, but this album will give you an idea of his talent and foresight. He wrote his own songs, played a pretty mean guitar and was a pioneer of rock. This is a feel good album and highly recommended. The sound quality is the best I've ever heard on any previous Eddie Cochrane CD.
